The 2022–23 Ranji Trophy was the 88th season of the Ranji Trophy, the premier first-class cricket tournament in India.[1] It was played from 13 December 2022 and was finished on 19 February 2023.[2] Madhya Pradesh were the defending champions, winning their first Ranji Trophy title previous season.[n 1][3][4]

During this season, Sikkim hosted Ranji Trophy matches for the first time.[5] Narayanan Janani, Vrinda Rathi and Gayathri Venugopalan became the first female umpires to officiate in the Ranji Trophy.[6]

In the final, Saurashtra defeated Bengal by 9 wickets to win their second title.[7]

Format

[edit]

Unlike the last season, where all teams competed for the same trophy, this season BCCI enforced the Promotion and relegation format. This Ranji trophy had two winners to improve the standard and competitiveness of the tournament. The teams were divided into two categories named as Elite category having 32 teams split into four groups, with Plate category having 6 teams.[8] The Elite group teams played each other once, with the top two teams from each group qualified for the quarter-finals. In the Plate Group also teams played each other once, but the top four teams qualified for the plate group knockouts, with the bottom two teams playing for the fifth and sixth positions, and another playoff for the third and fourth positions took place.[9] The two Plate finalists will be promoted to the Elite group for the next season, 2023–24, while the bottom two teams of all the four Elite groups combined - factoring in both points and the quotient will be relegated to Plate group.[9]

The teams were placed in the following groups:[10]

Group A Group B Group C Group D Plate Group
